It's all gambling. I've never believed it was clever to average 5% a year holding the index, where at one point in time within the last 20 years it was down nearly 50%. I guess people don't have many options when it comes to passive investing. I do allocate long-term to the index and REIT's, but...

Very much so. The most effective way to speed the learning curve is to just look at the market as a giant random number generator, then design strategies around that with as few degrees of freedom as possible.

You're doing this very wrong. After the market opens you'd be better off flipping a coin, than looking at anything that happened before the open. All that matters is what happened seconds before you take your position, and attempt to do slightly better than random/coin flip upon entry, and then...

I admire your effort, but you’re dealing with ingrates and gunslingers here. Your contribution here is like watching grass grow to them. Some will always appreciate though.

I think you’ve cracked your head.

No, not so good :)

Ok. It'll cost us some sleep, but we can live with that.

Can you show us some stats (not charts) that can back up that claim, which outlines the high probability/positive expectancy of transient zones, two dots, and indicator divergences? Just some supporting research data would really spark my/our interest. It's really hard to take seriously otherwise.

No difference really https://www.investopedia.com/terms/s/speculator.asp

This kind of order:

Sounds like a custom build. Since execution isn’t needed, I’d just hire a competent developer on Upwork to do it using Python with crystal clear specs on what you need.

Don't forget this scenario as well:

The luck factor is evident in the math, without even looking at the strategy. To aim for 2% a day means X amount of losing trades wipes you out, and it becomes only a matter of time and high probability that X arrives.

Of course, it's good for shit, but their free version beats anything web-based that's free.

I don’t know bud they’re moving up quick. Tradingview went to 1M to 3M+ subscribers quickly. I underestimated them and passed up on a VC investment opportunity during their first round.

Same time my gonads hit the bottom

True, but the OP made it clear he fully intends to read the market. Also unlike naked positions, what you are suggesting isn’t viable without proper capitalization which is out of reach for most, especially in third world countries. I could sell premium all day running neutral/hedging...

Judging by your research tool of choice, i’ll take that with a grain of sea salt.

Sure. Stay away from options. The odds get even more stacked against you with the added variables.

I was thinking the same. Not even a brief description of a competitive advantage.
